Write a letter

A resident of Saransk, an animal rights activist. In the late 2000s, she was the First Secretary of the Leninist Communist Youth Union in Saransk and took part in organising protest actions. In March 2025, she was added to the list of extremists and terrorists of Rosfinmonitoring. In May 2025, it became known that she had been taken into custody on charges of calling for extremism and public justification of terrorism. According to the project "Support for Political Prisoners. Memorial", the case was initiated over her comments about the sentence given to Kirill Butylin, who set fire to a military recruitment centre in the Moscow region, and about the torture of detained participants of the "Mayakovsky Readings" in Moscow, which led to a case against three poets.

It says that the prisoner I was assigned was tried for terrorism, or extremism or something else scary, what’s up with that?
